Egypt partners with Intel to train one million citizens annually in artificial intelligence over the next three years.

Egypt’s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology signed a three-year MoU with Intel to build national AI capabilities. The partnership aims to train 1 million citizens annually on AI concepts and qualify 1,500 local certified trainers over three years.

The initiative supports Egypt’s National AI Strategy 2025–2030, targeting youth, university students, jobseekers, and government leaders.

Egypt’s massive training partnership with Intel signals a growing push by North African governments to preemptively upskill their workforces as AI integration accelerates.

By targeting 1 million citizens annually and 1,500 trainers over three years, the initiative builds a sustainable talent pipeline that could make Egypt a key regional hub for AI-enabled services.

This structured approach to digital trust and capability building is likely to serve as a blueprint for other major African economies, such as Kenya and Nigeria, looking to align national workforce development with their own digital policies before 2030.
